Son of actor Harvey Lembeck.

Was a finalist for the roles of Arthur Fonzarelli in Happy Days (1974) and Jack Tripper in Herzbube mit zwei Damen (1976).

In 1971, he appeared with his father Harvey Lembeck in an episode of Die Partridge Familie (1970), as a kitchen worker and restaurant owner on opposite sides of a strike.

Remembered for playing Max Horvath, husband of Julie Cooper (played by Mackenzie Phillips), on the long-running comedy One Day at a Time (1975). Phillips's firing from the series led to his being written out also. (In the story-line, Julie abruptly leaves Max and their infant daughter. Max accepts a new job in Texas, and moves away from Indianapolis.).

Lembeck continued in the role of Max after Phillips was fired.

Went to the same High School as Angelina Jolie, Michael Klesic, Nicolas Cage, Corbin Bernsen, Lenny Kravitz, David Schwimmer, Jonathan Silverman and Richard Dreyfuss.

Friends with John Ritter.

Brother of actress Helaine Lembeck.
